I don't know where I weigh in right now but I'm horrified to see it, aha...
Took the past week off of the strict diet I start...almost exactly a year ago, I think, because I was celebrating my wedding and felt that a few days of normal sugar and carbs for wedding cake and all wasn't the worst thing. I'm glad to be going back, because it really wasn't worth it lol and I've got a sugar hangover xD

A year ago, I was feeling sick and got turned down for a birth control script renewal because of such high blood pressure that they almost sent me to the hospital. Turns out it was a diabetes complication and uh, well, things weren't great. I got put on medication and all--medication i went off over the summer after the lifestyle change completely put everything into healthy ranges, though ^^

Last I checked, I was down to 204 from 285 last year, but I'm sure I'm sugar bloated right now and maybe 210-220. My scale broke after getting kicked by work boots, so we're waiting on the replacement to see where things fall. My end goal is 160, haha, but i'm sure that's far off.

Also, outside of this past week (4 days, really), I absolutely did change completely overnight and stick with it full time, and I think that some people, myself included, are hurt more than helped by well wishing people who say things like "a little cutting back is okay, you don't have to do it all at once!" because it gives us an excuse to rationalize why we aren't just doing it. I spent YEARS on and off weird diet plans before I just committed after the medical slap in the face, and anytime someone said stuff like "it's okay to have a treat now and again", they only really set me back, mentally, from committing to what I clearly needed to do.

That said, Keto as a lifestyle/diet is fucking fantastic for getting past that, because it's a diet that works well by making you just not feel hungry while also punishing you for /not/ committing. If you cheat and eat sugar and carbs, it takes longer to adapt and get past the flu and makes you feel sick, whereas commiting makes you feel full, more energetic, etc. You can't "treat yourself" with cheat days unless you want to perpetually be sick. x3

Aww, that's super lame. People like that suck.
Are they modern day type characters, now?
o3o
Oh man, you could always have them still be modern day magic or something.
I have a bias, I'm a sucker for modern day magic.

I used to be a white noise when sleeping kind of person, but boy hates it, so I've grown to be able to sleep without over the years lol
When i'm sleeping alone i often put on rainy mood, though

Do you just not do fantasy at all much anymore, or was it just that specific setting that got ruined for you?

awwuh those were cute!
Who are they?

The whole no sugar/flour/rice/carbs thing limits me a lot, I'm afraid. I've tried a lot of the more common ethnic food types when I lived in Philly, plus a casual fuck ton of Indonesian food from my step-dads family, though.

I don't think i've ever had filipino food owo

Moving this thread to the mini shop forum. Good luck on your search!

I've never been clear on if the img right tags even worked, so good to know.

Does /anyone/ like kale, really?

Man, I'm digging these items, but there's always like one accent color that breaks my color scheme and i can't make myself change my avatar lol

It is a good mood. I'm forever salty that the fandom didn't blow up, and the fanfiction is so mediocre
:C
